    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    All reviews gave perfect ratings, with strong support for the high performance of this sticky tension rubber. As an aggressive rubber that combines speed and rotation, it has high potential to become a powerful weapon when used by skilled players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • High-performance sticky rubber combining speed and spin
    • Excellent stability and ball control against cuts
    • Powerful spin generation from light serve touch
    • Aggressive play with spin-heavy arcs and tricky shots
    • Note temperature-dependent changes in feel and response
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveAfter trying many rubbers including Tenergy, Dignics 05 and 09c, this rubber best met expectations. It provides more stability against cuts than 09c and faster speed than 05. The metallic sound feels satisfying and shots are reliable even with strong impact.
    ▽ CriticalIn cold gymnasiums it feels harder and becomes less user-friendly, requiring temperature management. Until accustomed to it, the trajectory of speed drives differs from imagination.

      I got back into table tennis after decades away, chasing the feel of Sriver with three coats of speed glue.
      I tried all sorts of rubbers that would suit an outer, special-material bouncy blade, including Tenergy, Dignics 05, and 09c, and this rubber reproduced that feel the most closely.
      In particular, when hitting a chopper from about net height with a full-power impact, this rubber lands in more reliably than 09c, while still being faster than 05. And best of all, the metallic sound on contact feels great.
      Serves grab spin even with a light cut, and you can push through knuckle drives and place them right where you're aiming.
      Loop drives also go in consistently, so if you're losing to players at the same level, I think it comes down to a lack of skill in receiving and the short game, or just being outsmarted.
      That said, in a large, cold gym, it can feel harder and a bit less easy to use.
      So on cold days, I think warming it up with a rubber warmer or something helps it play without that awkward feeling.
      The feel changes quite a bit between a warm indoor space and a cold gym, so it's probably worth factoring in the effect of the environment.
      As for durability, 09c lasted relatively longer, but how long this rubber holds up will depend on how you use it going forward.

      - A lively tacky tension rubber! 09C x Chinese tacky rubber = Jikihai C57.5
      - It's a tacky rubber, yet the ball comes off even faster than C55!
      - A strong arc and tricky, unpredictable ball, just like you'd expect from a tacky rubber!
      The people I've played against told me it has a Hurricane-like tricky quality.
      It's gotten harder, which makes it easier to generate spin, and serves bite hard even with a light touch — I really like it.
      Going from C55 to C57.5, my impression is that the ball comes off even more easily.
      Especially when hitting speed drives, even with a fairly meet-like stroke the ball arcs up on its own with topspin seemingly applied on its own, and it flies on a trajectory quite different from what I expected, so I felt it takes some getting used to.
      It's close to a tension rubber, but I think it's better to use it with the mindset that it's a tacky rubber.
      If you can master it, I think it's a super-aggressive rubber that can really push opponents around with its spin and its tricky quality.

      If you're torn, definitely go with this one.
      You'll win about 80% of the time — your drive accuracy gets close to pro level
